One price. Everything included.
Whether court-ordered for divorce or custody, or referred by a caseworker, our Co-Parenting and Parenting Classes meet every court and agency requirement.
First, the Free Question
Plenty of parents search for a free parenting class, and that instinct is fair: this is an expense you did not choose. Here is the honest picture before you spend time on one:
Free Classes Are Usually Not Approved by Any Court
Most free parenting classes are general parenting help, built without any court requirement in mind. Helpful for skills, but a judge is looking for a class that satisfies the order, and free programs rarely carry that standing.
The Certificate Is Only Worth the Name On It
Courts move fast, and a certificate works when the court recognizes the provider behind it. We have been the name attorneys recommend and courts know since 1993. An unfamiliar printout invites questions you do not want on hearing day.
No Way for the Court to Verify
Our certificates verify online in seconds through a QR code. Most free programs offer nothing a court clerk can check, and an unverifiable certificate can mean starting over with an approved provider, on a tighter deadline.
"Free" Often Is Not
Some programs advertise a free class, then charge for the certificate, the processing, or the shipping. By the time the court has what it needs, the free class was not free. We do the opposite: one price, everything included, no surprises.
One Price. Everything Included.
Our class is $60, one time. Everything the court needs from you is in that price:
- The full class: 15 short lessons, about 4 hours, self-paced

See What the Certificate IncludesCost Questions, Answered
How much does a court-ordered parenting class cost?
Ours is $60, one time. That single price includes the full 4 hours class, the certificate of completion the moment you finish, QR verification the court can check in seconds, and a copy to your attorney if you want one. There is nothing else to buy.
Are there really no extra fees?
Really. No certificate fee, no processing fee, no shipping fee, no charge to verify. One price covers everything the court needs from you, start to finish.
Can I take a free parenting class for court?
Only if your court says so. A few counties run their own free or low-cost local programs, and if your order names one, use it, that is the requirement. But a free class you find on your own usually is not approved by any court and offers the court no way to verify completion, which can mean taking a class twice.
Why do parenting class prices vary so much?
Length, state requirements, and what is bundled in. Some providers price the class low and add fees for the certificate or verification afterward. When you compare, compare the total: the class, the certificate, and the verification the court will actually rely on.
Is a more expensive class more likely to satisfy the court?
No. What matters to the court is the provider behind the certificate, not the price tag. Ours has been approved by courts nationwide since 1993, which is exactly why one modest price is all it takes.
What if I truly cannot afford the class?
